NOW back in the fold after a two-year absence, Jess is keen to make up for lost time. 

She has suffered foot injuries in the past, which led to a long spell out of the game.

She is working hard at her personal fitness in order to push for a regular first team place this season. 

"Jess is a natural predator, who instinctively gets into goalscoring positions," says manager Marrie Wieczorek. 

"She makes intelligent runs, opening up the play for her team-mates."
